Since Monday morning strike of Robin
sons mill hands has been in progress at
Millview. The men, so says one of them,
have been working for 81 per day, and got
paid when the proprietor of the mill felt
like paying them. Saturday they addressed
a note to Mr. Robinson, couched in very re-
spectful terms, stating their inability TO
work under such conditions for that pay,
and demanding 81 per day and monthly
payments. To tins Mr.. Robinson
replied That the price of lum-
Der was very low, and until it
increased, he could not accede to the de-
mand; he wound up by saying that those
who did not care To work at the rate of
wages then being paid, could stay away
from the mill. The men, who it seems,
were in dead earnest, took him at his word
and the mill has been shut -wn since Sat
uIday night The mill gave employment
to more than 200 men, and about that num-
Der are laid Off in consequence Of the strike
OF the number about forty are white men.

A VILLAIN UNM TASK ED.

Two weeks ago most villainous
card appeared simultaneously in the
Republican papers of North Carolina,
written by John Nichols, of Raleigh,
and making personal attack on 10.
sephus Daniels, Esq, editor of the
State Chronicle The immediate cause
Of its appearance was editorial criti-
cism, in the Chronicle, upon the
appointment by Nichols of his son to
a cadetship at West Point Gu S. Mil
itary Academy
Not satisfied with an attempted de-
Tense, and a weak one it was, of his
course, Nichols attacked the personal
character of Mr.. Daniels and with all
the spitefnlness of narrow soul, at
tempted to silence by personal abuse
rather than by fair, manly argument.
To this letter Mr.. Daniels made a
reply which will stand as an example
of the most whitening, and at the same
time the most manly, gentlemanly re-
ply to cowardly attacks ever penned
within the decade.
Mr.. Daniels not only proves him a
liar but something SO near akin to a
thief that the most discriminating can
scarcely find difference.
He not only proves Nichols to be a
demagogue but at the same time shows
himself to be christian gentleman.
This week Nichols vents his spite
in column and half of the vilest
personal filings, insinpating base charg-
es against the character of Mr.. Dan
iels, when he dares not make them as a
direct assertion. Instead of discussing
and attempting to refnte the charges
brought by Mr.. Daniels, he tries this
same old dodge and attempts to sub
stitute, "cuss" and vituperation for an
honest defense. It's a blot upon the
fair name of North Carolina that sueb
man ever represented any portion Of
her people in any capacity. Nichols is
of the Republicans, and owes his Office
as Congressman to their votes. Surely
surely, when the Republican party
expects the support of decent men, it
should place before them men of in
tegrity and worth. Nichols will hard.

The tax on fruit brandy is going to

en- off by the Democratic majority in
Congress, and in opposition to the
wishes of the Republican members of

A majority of the voters of North
Carolina have demanded the repeal of
these taxes and they are going to be
relieved of them-by the Democratic
party. Suppose you that you would
ever have those wishes complied with
if you had to depend on Republican
Congresses ?
Never, while the world stands.
The Democrats of North CoIolina
cannot have the tax on whiskey taken
off. They have repeatedly tried and
failed. But they mean to try to have
the means of collection materially al
tered, and to work many beneficial re-
| forms in the service as it exists to-day.
And they are going to accomplish
something in that direction.

THE repeal OF the tax on tobacco and fruit
brandies, or the repeal of the entire internal
revenue system, had to originate in the house
where the Democrats had large majority. No
such bill ever passed that body. The Demo-
cratic Speaker and the Democratic President
both are opposed 10 any such lie 3islation, and
four-ffths of the party represented in Con-
gress opposed to it. The record shows this.
= Valley Firginian.
The record shows exactly the oppo-
site. 1t shows the Democratic party
would have repealed the cursed inter
nal revenue but for Republican oppo-
sition. In the last Congress 131 Dem
ocratic representative voted for re-
peal of the tobacco tax and only five
against repeal, while nearly every Re
publican ia the House voted squarely
against repeal. That's The record,
and the people of Virginia and North
Carolina will be apt to remember it
when the next election comes around.
